Precision for Small Measurements

The AMIR KA8G is a pocket-sized digital scale that reads from 0.05 g up to 500 g with a 0.01 g resolution. It suits hobbyists weighing jewellery, medication, coffee or cooking ingredients where fine increments matter. The green ABS frame and stainless platform keep the footprint small enough for a drawer or travel bag.

Two Trays and Six Unit Modes

Included are a 13 cm and a 10 cm tray that double as protective covers or weighing vessels. A backlit LCD switches between g, tl, oz, ct and gn, while the PCS button counts small items such as beads or screws. Auto-off timing can be set to 60, 120 or 180 seconds, and the display warns of low battery, overload or an uneven surface.

500 g Limit with 0.01 g Steps

The scale handles up to 500 g in 0.01 g increments, making it reliable for letters, spices, supplements or precious metals. It runs on two AAA alkaline cells, which are supplied. Readings become unstable beyond the rated capacity, and the 0.05 g minimum means it cannot resolve sub-centigram masses such as fine powders or single grains.

Questions about this item

When will the two AAA batteries need replacing?

Battery life depends on usage frequency and the auto-off setting you choose (60, 120, or 180 seconds); the display alerts you when power is low.

What stops the scale from weighing higher loads during a long session?

The maximum capacity is 500 g; an overload alert sounds if you exceed this limit.

How much heat or noise does the scale produce when left on all day?

The scale has no moving parts or fan, so it runs silently and generates no noticeable heat during continuous operation.
